How else are you to get into the minds of the successful...? - Jeff Grout has met and interviewed many, many top sports stars. This is and opportunity to learn why and how people exceed their best, never give up and lead in their sports.Covering the sort of topics that you may be told you need to do to be successful, Jeff reveals what life s winners think and do to give them the edge.You can imagine this being spoken to you as you read the relaxed style.I enjoyed this.

Uninspiring & repetitive - Sadly this book isn t what at all what I expected, and overall it s very disappointing. It seems to be more of an advert for a certain mental conditioning company, which is mentioned on just about every other page and at one stage is called by different names. There are several interview extracts with famous sportsmen and women, sadly not too many from the very elite top end (Michael Jordan, Roger Federer, Pete Sampras, Michael Schumacher etc) and far too much repetition of facts, names and stories. It s also poorly written in places and badly structured throughout, but the worst thing was it taught me nothing I didn t already know.
